Holiday Giving On An Epic Level

Just a portion of the over 4000 items raised in the
Emerge Food Drive
Every year, Emerge hosts a food drive, but this year was an outstanding success. So much so Emerge had to find multiple charities to donate the food too.

What was different this year? Competition. Each department was pitted against each other with the promise of a pizza and movie day, along with bragging rights for the following year.
Items will be brought to the Freestore Foodbank on Monday, but to make room in the office with the overabundance, Erica Freeman from City Merge came by the Emerge office today. City Merge is a local NKY organization in the process of applying for their non-profit status that hosts "Tent Day" in the Northern Kentucky communities of Florence and Burlington every Thursday. Tent Day provides food to local families in need year round.

"With this years success, there is no doubt that we will be following this format for years to come. We are overwhelmed with what we have accomplished as a team and how it can directly benefit local families." Kristen Brown, HR Generalist
Managing Partner Darron Scanlon and Project Manager Scott
Coleman load donated items for City Merge.
